Answer 1

`Wood\ remain = 1(3)/(4)`

Explanation:

Note; given question is incomplete

Size of pieces =
`1(2)/(3) ,2(3)/(4) , 3(5)/(6)`

Given:

Size of wood = 10 ft

Find:

How much wood remain

Computation:

Wood remain =
`10-1(2)/(3) -2(3)/(4) - 3(5)/(6)`

`Wood\ remain = 10-(5)/(3) -(11)/(4) - (23)/(6)\\\\Wood\ remain = 10 - (99)/(12) \\\\Wood\ remain = 1(3)/(4)`
